About Hostaria Verona

For three days in October, Verona's historic centre transforms into an open-air wine cellar. Hostaria, the Festival of Wine and the Grape Harvest, brings hundreds of labels, Venetian and Italian wineries, tastings, music, guests, and conscious drinking culture to Via Roma, Piazza Bra, and Piazza dei Signori. A journey through the flavours of the Veronese territory in the monumental heart of the city.

A large open-air tavern

Hostaria is the Festival of Wine and the Grape Harvest in Verona, created to offer the unique experience of a large, widespread tavern in the city's historic centre. For three days, Verona's monumental squares and courtyards fill with tasting stands, glasses, and stories about wine.

The route through the squares

The event winds through five main areas of the centre: Via Roma and Piazza Bra with its gardens, the Cortile Mercato Vecchio, the Cortile del Tribunale, Piazza dei Signori with its loggias, and the Gardens of Piazza Indipendenza. The main entrances are in Piazza Bra and Piazza dei Signori.

Wine, gastronomy, and culture

Hundreds of labels from wineries and protection consortia guide visitors on a food and wine journey that celebrates the great Veronese and Venetian wines. The programme includes conferences, guests, live music, and moments dedicated to the culture of responsible drinking.

Verona, capital of wine

In a city that hosts Vinitaly, the most important Italian wine fair, Hostaria brings wine directly to the people, into the heart of Verona, in Veneto, celebrating the deep connection between the territory, the grape harvest, and its wine identity.
